Facebook's new home: HP's old office park
Facebook's new bosses don't let the peons throw drinking-game parties anymore, but at least the drones get to go to work in a pedestrian-friendly urban setting, right? Nope. Facebook plans to move "a substantial portion of its operations" in the first quarter of 2009 from downtown Palo Alto to one of HP's old office parks on to 1601 California Avenue, reports Palo Alto Online. The lot, about 8.5 acres in the Stanford Research Park, used to house HP's spun-off subsidiary Agilent, but by the looks of it, we would've guessed Dunder-Mifflin.
